UTA represents world-class artists such as Johnny Depp, Harrison Ford, Owen Wilson, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Lopez and Rachel McAdams as well as a long list of directors, screenwriters, producers, authors and recording artists. The agency also provides branding, licensing and marketing services to its clients.

Siegel+Gale initially conducted brand research and analysis, which revealed that UTA’s true brand strength was in its entrepreneurial approach to creating more opportunities for clients. After establishing this key identifying factor, Siegel+Gale developed brand positioning, messaging strategy and a redesigned visual identity system to bring the brand to life.

To unite the employees of UTA’s entire fast-growing organization and differentiate its service offering, Siegel+Gale developed a new brand platform that more accurately reflects the agency’s unique culture. The brand promise—seizing opportunities so talent thrives—captures the agency’s intense entrepreneurial spirit. The new promise better articulates how UTA helps artists reach their full creative potential and grow their careers.

The rebranding was introduced to coincide with the firm’s 20th anniversary.

“UTA delivers great opportunities to the world’s top figures in entertainment. This rebrand helps the agency better project its excellent work externally and communicate its stature in the entertainment industry,” said Jason Cieslak, managing director at Siegel+Gale. “The new positioning also reflects UTA’s ability to offer unmatched creativity and strategic services to clients everyday.”
